Rumours about a possible romance between Dhanush and Mrunal Thakur are making headlines once more, thanks to a simple Instagram comment. The speculation comes after Dhanush praised Mrunal’s recent post, setting social media abuzz.

Mrunal shared a teaser for her upcoming film, Do Deewane Sheher Mein , featuring the film’s theme music composed by Anurag Saikia. Underneath her post, Dhanush left a warm note: “Looks and sounds good.” Mrunal responded with heart and sunflower emojis, and as soon as the exchange was noticed, fans flooded the internet with excitement and speculation. Screenshots of their comments quickly began circulating, with some netizens even referring to them as “Thalaiva” and “Thalaivi” affectionate terms reserved for Tamil film royalty.

This isn’t the first time fans have connected the two romantically. Earlier in the year, Dhanush and Mrunal were spotted hugging at the premiere of Son of Sardaar 2 , which sparked the first wave of dating rumours.

The chatter didn’t stop at their on-screen chemistry. Some fans drew a connection between the teaser’s background score and Dhanush’s 2012 film 3, whose theme music composed by Anirudh Ravichander has a similar tone.

Despite all the gossip, Mrunal has addressed these rumours before. She has said that Dhanush is “just a good friend” and asked people not to read too much into their interactions.She also expressed her belief in the concept of “buri nazar” (evil eye), explaining why she remains cautious about sharing too much about her personal life.

On the work front, Dhanush is prepping for the release of Tere Ishk Mein , directed by Aanand L. Rai, opposite Kriti Sanon, which is slated to release on November 28. Mrunal, meanwhile, has a busy schedule with Do Deewane Sheher Mein , Dacoit: A Love Story , and more projects in the pipeline.
